Paiste's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "Paiste's Rude range of instruments now have their 'China-types'too. These, however, are the more traditional sort with square-shouldered bell and upturned flange. Two popular sizes are being produced, 18" and 20", both in a medium weight. They're much less tasteful sounding than the Novo; much brasher. They have a really good explosive sound which would be perfect for punctuation. I preferred the crash sound with the cymbal the right way up, and the ride with it upside-down. If used like this there are four distinct sounds possible including inside the bell."
